I may check it out.

The 3 year old likes musicals.

And I’m gay.

Likely check it out at some point. Really enjoyed Hamilton, almost as great as seeing it live.

I thought it was very good.

Not as good as Hamilton but I’m a bit of a history buff.

I did enjoy the It’s A Wonderful Life shoutout towards the end.

Lin-Manuel's next project will be a musical celebrating the life of Kamala Harris. It will fail beyond the wildest dreams of Max Bialystock and she will lose the 2024 election to Dave Portnoy.

not many musicals have translated well to the big screen for myriad reasons. The problems usually start with casting

I thought the cast was good. I like Anthony Ramos. He is a likable on-screen/stage presence.

I was limited by my lack of Spanish in following the story at times. But it was visually and musically interesting.

I'll bet that makes Corey Hawkins sad.

I'm not sure if it's okay to watch it. I'm hearing it's racist.

I actually gave it a shot. I enjoyed Hamilton; for some reason that must’ve made sense to me at the time, I assumed the two would be similar.

I made it 10 min before turning it off.
